Good morning, kids. I guess I could just do a riff on the infamous New York Daily News headline from October 1975, which many see as an unfair attack that sank incumbent President Gerald Ford’s reelection campaign even before it started, with something that IMHO is more accurate: PENCE TO AMERICA: “DROP DEAD” Replying to Tucker Carlson’s…
Good morning, kids. Happy Bastille Day. Too bad the Islamo-Marxists in France couldn’t have waited a week to set fire to the country. What timing that would’ve been, eh? And speaking of 714, somewhere through our fistful of quaaludes-induced nightmare, the specter of mushroom clouds in the east suddenly looms quite large: [So-called quote-unquote “president”] Joe…
Good morning, kids. So the Capitol Hill dog and pony show of “grilling” FBI Reichsminister Christopher Wray surprised and shocked no one. Americans saw an arrogant liar whose mien and demeanor were narcissistic and condescending. Anti-Americans saw a patriot being unjustly persecuted by representatives of the knuckle-dragging troglodyte set. The low information set were too…
Good morning, kids. Honestly, given the Orwellian nightmare we find ourselves trapped in, I would have bet good money that unreconstructed cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal would have been released from prison by now and perhaps given a teaching position at Berkeley. Ditto the equally bloody Joanne Chesimard/Assatta Shakur while feted and given a parade down Fifth…
An honest appraisal of the state of America and the West yields a discouraging — even a depressing — answer. The glory of Western culture, with its technological, artistic, and social brilliance is being subsumed by a chaotic and narcissistic world-view, coupled with the profoundly anti-human authoritarianism of the left that is gleefully using that…
ood morning, kids. In case you missed it, there was an horrific mass stabbing at a Chinese kindergarten the other day that left six dead, three of whom were children. Obviously, with everything else going on both here and abroad something like this, as terrible as it is, becomes only so much background noise before disappearing…
Good morning, kids. Picking up where I left off on Friday, as well as our fascinating conversation on the podcast with the great Robert Spencer (here and in the sidebar) there was a salient point which probably all of you who are regular readers here are well aware of yet it bears underscoring. As of…
Good morning, kids. As does happen on occasion, one story in particular jumps out and just crystallizes the nature of our nation, such as it is, today. The headline itself speaks volumes: Interpreter Who Served with US Forces in Afghanistan, Fled Taliban Takeover, Shot Dead Driving Lyft in DC As you ponder that, let’s shift gears…
“American Gun Culture” is a pejorative according to the media and their masters in the federal, state and local law-enforcement leviathan. It goes hand-in-hand with the relentless reporting of almost every shooting as a “mass shooting,” and every gang drive-by-shooting conspicuously stripped of all mention of the entrenched violence of the blue cities. It is…
Good morning, kids. As white line fever grips the White House, bad as the complete debasement of our standing and our image in front of the world may be with this, the criminality and corruption that placed literal scum in the leadership role (actual or figurehead) is at the root of all of this. Hunter Biden, a complete…
